Vodacom stated that customers who purchase this device will also receive 150MB of data every month for 12 months.
“In the past six years, smartphone penetration has doubled from 30% to 60% customers migrate from 2G devices to 3G and 4G smartphones,” said Davide Tacchino, Vodacom’s terminals managing executive, in a statement.
“To further drive this transition and help bridge the digital divide, we have now introduced South Africa’s first 4G feature phone for just R299 having launched the country’s first smart feature phone with a traditional keypad during the course of last year.”
